Format:

Description:
A branch target address is computed from the sum of the address of the instruction in the delay slot and the 16-bit
offset
, shifted left two bits and sign-extended. If the contents of general register
rs
are smaller than zero, then the
program branches to the target address, with a delay of one instruction.
Operation:
32 T: target (offset15)14 || offset || 02
